Found It
by Bruce Van

Farley
Sheep was afraid of the dark! He didn't like sleeping
in the dark, scary meadow. Edna, the sheep dog, got
to sleep in a nice, cozy house...until one day, Farley
found it, and moved in. The next day, Edna moved her
house, but, you guessed it... Farley found it! And so,
the hide-and-seek game begins. Will Edna ever get her
doghouse back?
A
farm sheep named Farley decided that he should sleep
in Edna's dog house, but Edna would have no part in
that. This funny tug-of-war, hide-and-seek over a dog
house will leave you guessing and laughing as you do
the skill-building activities in the Kids Wings Literature
Guide.
